This Altoid tin was first covered with Slate washi Tape around the top edge. The washi tape was then folded in and covered with patterned paper adhered with Modge Podge. To size this paper, place the tin upside down on the back side of the paper you plan to use, trace around it and cut inside the line to get the proper size. The bottom paper was cut 1/2 inch by 12 inches and adhered with Modge Podge. The shape was cut with the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, the shape was <Rctngle8> on page 65 cut at 1 inch. Sentiment was stamped in Cotton Candy ink and edged with Slate. This was then adhered with Modge Podge and then the entire top was covered with a light layer of Modge Podge to seal it. Decorate as desired.

To make the album portion, cut a 3 1/2 inch by 11 inch plain cardstock, score every two inches and accordion fold. You will have an inch of paper on the end, cut a 2 x 3 1/2 inch paper to cover that part, glue together. Round all corners. Cut two pieces of score tape for the bottom of the tin, and if desired, cut a length of 1/4 inch grosgrain ribbon, find the middle of the ribbon and place that crosswise in the middle of the tin. Then place the accordion folded paper with the glued piece in the bottom of the tin covering the ribbon. For the paper in the top of the open tin, again trace the top of the tin on the backside of your desired paper and cut inside the lines, adhere in place. Add pictures that are 1 7/8 x 3 3/8.
